I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 47: Choose Two from Five, a Difficult Decision (Please Read!)

Uesugi Tetsu felt very strange.

Because there was a ghost story craze on Twitter before, the number of people in Tokyo who participated in summoning White Prajna was estimated to be no less than hundreds or thousands.

So why did it find Kitano Runa who had never summoned it?

"Uh, I think..." Kitano Runa hesitated, giving an awkward smile, "Maybe it's because I tried a dozen summoning rituals in one night? Putting Bai Hannya last made it unhappy?"

"what?"

Uesugi Che was stunned for a moment, suspecting that his ears were damaged by Bai Prajna's yelling: "Say it again?"

Kitano Runa repeated it clearly.

In an instant, the ward fell into an unspeakable silence.

Uesugi Tetsu looked at Kitano Runa with a complicated expression. Kitano looked left and right, scratching her head with her fingers. "Kitano-san, you... you are not very skilled, but you are very brave. It's a miracle that you can still live until now."

Kitano Runa lowered her head, her glasses reflecting the light: "So, didn't I go to that place with Manatsu before? Oh, right, the Special Affairs Office!"

Sister, you almost wiped out the Special Affairs Office headquarters.

Uesugi Tetsu was ashamed. If they airdropped more than a dozen high-star demons at once, they might be able to capture the Arakawa District Special Affairs Office when the number of people was small.

However, this should be impossible.

Uesugi Tetsu remembered what Nanjo Aimi had said before about the "sea level theory".

——What this means is that now only low-star demons can break through the barriers of the ordinary world and enter the real world following the precursor of the first wave.

This was probably because the projections of Kappa and White Prajna that he encountered were both only one star. Otherwise, White Prajna could have come down in her original form without having to go through such a long and meaningless journey.

"But I didn't summon them just to follow the crowd," Kitano Runa said. "I've been able to sense different movements since I was a child, but I've never witnessed them myself, so I thought they were all fake."

Uesugi Tetsu: "Since childhood?"

Seeing Uesugi Tetsu's puzzled look, Kitano Runa began to count on her fingers, listing off the "fake supernatural phenomena" she had encountered one by one.

Uesugi Che was confused and didn't know what to say.

He recalled the fox, dog and raccoon game the five of them had played before. Strictly speaking, that was the first time they had played a real supernatural game, and then a tragedy happened.

But the Kitano Runa in front of me... has done all kinds of daring things.

Some of the weird details gave Uesugi Che goosebumps all over his body. Even now, he might not be able to survive in that kind of environment.

But Kitano Runa was still standing in front of him intact, announcing the dishes.

This is simply the existence of the king of endurance.

There is no doubt that Kitano Runa has a special physique different from ordinary people.

It's just that she herself doesn't know yet.

"Kitano-san, let me digest this information."

Uesugi Tetsu raised his hand and stopped Kitano Runa from reading out the fiftieth "dish name". He sighed and then looked at the prompts that he had not yet finished browsing.

Let’s take a look at the rewards to put our minds at ease.

【You can choose two from the following five rewards! 】

[1. Soul Ash 800 points. 】

[2. Obtain the quest items related to the Walking identity. After completing the quest, you can increase the rarity of the "Walking" identity.]

[3. Select a demon incarnation and grant it a random talent.]

[4. Skill Adaptation: Select a skill and modify it to reduce the proficiency required to upgrade it.]

[5. Exclusive for Laughing Prajna: Upgrade the quality of the demon incarnation, Laughing Prajna, from "Rare" to "Epic"!]

[Note: Your demonic incarnation, Laughing Prajna, originally required obtaining the special item "Red Prajna's Mask" before its quality could be upgraded to "Epic."]

"Hiss--" Uesugi Che took a breath of cold air. The reward for completing this dungeon was really too generous, both in quantity and quality.

The five options lined up, making it difficult for him to make a choice.

However, the first thing that can be ruled out is the first one.

800 soul ash may sound like a lot, more than all the soul ash Uesugi Tetsu has earned so far, but in reality it is nothing - it can't even cover the cost of two ten-draws.

What's more, who can guarantee that two ten-draw combos will result in the three-tailed fox being drawn from the card pool?

Therefore, the soul ash rewards that only short-sighted people or gamblers would choose should be excluded first.

Next is the second one, which increases the rarity of walking identity.

To be honest, the identity of walking, which can trigger special events, has indeed brought him a lot of benefits.

Whether it was the blacksmith who promised to forge weapons for him, or the fragments of the Great Onmyoji given by the social animal netizen, or the five-tailed fox he met in Edo Castle...

These are the conveniences brought by the walking identity.

However, on the other hand, Uesugi Tetsu also suspected that the reason why Aibieli came to him and Ririko was also due to his walking identity.

Otherwise, how could Aibieli ignore so many big shots and target these two little Karamis.

But in general - the benefits of walking far outweigh the disadvantages.

However, this time you can only choose two out of five, so Uesugi Tetsu decided to put it in the alternative options first and see what the rewards are later before making a decision.

Option three, bring a random skill...

It was another gambler's option. Knowing that he was extremely unlucky, Uesugi Tetsu passed it at a glance, and then his eyes lit up when he saw option four.

—Reducing skill proficiency? This would be very beneficial for the natural rational flow.

So, how much exactly is it?

The panel gave the answer - [one third].

Uesugi Tetsu's throat rolled. As long as he chose this option now, his natural rational flow would immediately reach the proficient level.

Likewise, the proficiency required for the next level up drops from a possible 1000 to 666.

This option will bring greater benefits as time goes on!
Uesugi Tetsu almost wanted to choose it, but the word "epic" in the fifth option hit his eyes mercilessly.

Uesugi Tetsu had no choice but to fall in love with someone else.

——First use "White Prajna's Mask", then choose option 5 to directly increase the quality of Laughing Prajna from the ubiquitous "Super Excellent" to the noble "Epic"!
At this stage, Laughing Prajna is the foundation of his life. It can be said that the stronger Laughing Prajna is, the faster Uesugi Che will become stronger!
So there is no need to hesitate about this route, just lock on option five as the first option!
So, what should I choose for the second reward?
The left hand is a special item that can increase the rarity of the walking identity, while the right hand reduces the required proficiency for upgrading, which has extremely high benefits in the long run.

Both play an important role in long-term development.

Uesugi Tetsu felt deeply conflicted - why couldn't he choose both?
At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open heavily, and a black-haired and black-eyed boy with a gloomy face walked out.

"It looks like you two are recovering well."

The young man curled his lips and spread his hands: "It seems that my unnecessary existence is no longer needed."

Uesugi Tetsu stared at him and exclaimed, "Akira Kurosaki, the Yin-Yang master of the Arakawa district?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shangshan Che.

"Who are you? How dare you know me?"

How could Uesugi Tetsu not know Nanjo Aimi's colleagues - rather, he had specifically asked her for a list and memorized all the Onmyojis and their followers in the Arakawa District.

In response to Nanjo Aimi's question at the time, Uesugi Tetsu's answer was to be prepared for any eventuality.

Well, it comes in handy right now.

Uesugi Tetsu seriously asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time:
"——Kurosaki-kun, do you know where Nanjo-san is now?"
